Adanism is a faith codified by the prophet Adanōs, born near modern-day Ilimpar, in Sasinthēne Voradena. It may be described as a descendant of old Sasinthēne Dyotheism, which was Adanōs’s native faith. Adanist tradition holds that there is a single God, which initially appeared to their creations as two halves (Eleio and Meddorōs). In the beginning, humanity, who were granted free will, were placed in an idealized society. However, time and moral corruption caused them to forget their piety, and they annihilated their first home. For this trespass, their creator scattered them to the distant corners of the world. In Adanist doctrine, it is only possible to return to this idealized former state by rebuilding what was destroyed, but not without true obedience to the creator.
In the words of Adanōs at Tanthes, where in legend he persuaded the ten masters of the city to submit to the God and bind themselves as the Sasinths had long ago, when all the world stands as a monument to the works of Heaven will we know it is come. The holiest symbol is the Yoke of Adanōs, representing the sacred convent forged at Tanthes, where the God granted Adanōs a vision of hope for restoration. The Yoke is the mark of submission and responsibility to service of the God, as its wearer cannot claim to be ignorant, only willfully astray. In many religious ceremonies, a priest raises the icon of the Yoke, and himself passes beneath it, before inviting the adherents to follow, reasserting their servitude of the God.
Inherited from Dyotheism is a lasting belief in mythical individuals blessed with prophecy, such as Daneiōchon Matoua ia’Òxianophea (The Demōxiphi). Adanists believe that Sanghatsa was a prophet in Ondmar, as Sölöhtan was in Calassy. In Adanism, the word Eleio refers to the prophetic spirit which infuses the souls and words of the prophets with wisdom. It can be said that Eleio, who takes name from the god of divine fire revealed to the Onavarans by the prophet Pargeōs, is the sole prophet, and the companion of Adanōs in the Coming World. A looped string stretched in a star shape between many points is the symbol of Eleio as the spirit of prophecy. Following Adanōs, as the prophet wrote, Eleio does not infuse prophets, but saints, those who make themselves a monument of Heaven upon the world.
Similarly inherited from Dyotheism is the belief in deceiving spirits, which hail from the depths of the sea. Pargeōs revealed that they are the spawn of Meddorōs, who himself (as a horizon god) acts as a seal upon the dark world beneath. Adanōs, however, clarified that this was necessary to create a seal to house demons, which had been created when humanity forgot their piety. Adanists unilaterally associate daemons with these deceiving spirits.
